Mail Fix Suggestion

Here's a solution for the big mail murder. Take all the attachments and put them into a special withdraw-only account bank. Dungeons and Dragons Online does this with their "reincarnation cache" when you recreate a character from max level back to level one. Once the bank is completely empty it ceases to exist. Everyone's happy.

i havent lost any of exchange sales expired items.
But what i do get is duplicates of my expired mail items.
And also my mail button on my mini-map is always flashing green, even with no new mail!?!

Its nothing big, but its the small things like this that are annoying to me!

Yeah, I've got a far simpler and likely far more feasible 'Mail Fix Suggestion': simply revert the mail system to its system parameters, prior to the launch of LOR. Tried and true system for three years, until this, now, not so recent fiasco.

Never, not once did we get an official notice or so much as an official whisper (and misguided musings on non-STO related sites, which have to do with blue birds chirping DO NOT count) that the three year established mail system was in for a change anytime soon.

I'm utterly convinced that all this was due to an unforeseen consequence of merging 'Neverwinter' and 'STO' assets. Unforeseen circumstances=mistakes. And it's high time the folk at Cryptic own up to this mistake and do right by players who've tried to stick with 'em , through thick and thin.

People have lost in-game assets, purchased with real-world money over this nonsense.

Do any of you really think that some Postal Service employee, Fed-Ex or UPS rep would still have their job, if they had lost correspondence that resulted in the loss of thousands, if not tens of thousands of dollars, euros, yen or whatever currency you might conduct commerce with and depend upon to live?

Last we heard, supposedly lost mail assets still exist and the powers that be have been looking to get said assets back to us.

Do us a favor, and keep us posted, will you????!!!

Better still, get us back said assets already and do yourselves a favor and follow the advice I offered in the first paragraph of this rant.

Pretty sure, if ya follow said advice, that everyone's bound to be happy and we can all move along and keep on playing and perhaps buying some of the stuff ya shell out, with confidence. Instead of dealing with trepidation over the incompetence with which such seemingly trivial matters as this have been handled.

you guys still think our stuff is still around? hah..

more then likely they lost it all.

the items might still be there in some database, but the emails that said whose items those are were lost.. so they have no idea. im guessing if they could restore the system, they would have by now and with NO acknowledgement from the devs, i would not hold your breath as to getting anything back..

The data of what junk you stored in the mail system is still there, you haven't lost anything, it's just gotten tied up during shipping.

The old mail system was replaced with a completely new system hence why the new 100 item limit to make the system more streamlined and resource efficient. However during the transfer of data from the old system to the new system the data isn't transferring into the mailbox part of the system correctly and that's why you have "missing" items. All of the data is still there so you haven't lost it and they are working on correcting the transfer errors so that it will properly show up in your mailboxes like it should be.

Be patient
